Let's Dance

We’re all learning a fun (easy) flash mob dance — because Lauren loved sh*t like that. 😉
Check out the instructional video below, and join in when we kick it off during Saturday’s Celebration of Life party!

Listen for the beat as your cue to head to the dance floor in the lobby approximately 15min after the service ends.

The larger our group, the easier it’ll be for Lauren to see us! Practice and share this magical moment with your kids, your family and all those who loved her.

See you on the dance floor!

• Inspired by Lauren Perfors
• Choreographed by Elise Ray-Statz
• Performed by Josephine Barstow
• Dancing to “Can’t Stop The Feeling!” by Justin Timberlake
